LSx subforum works...

Sounds good. Nice instrument cluster.

You might want to look into extending the air inlet into the corner of the engine compartment to get it away from the radiator heat, and getting a bigger air filter.

Re: 89 camaro w/ 99 z28 ls1 w/T-56 vid

57kid- thanks man! i thought of doing that once i get the battery relocated to the trunk so i can move it out the fans..

Raider RS- actually it was pretty simple, all the gauges work with a brain you have to buy seperately but speedo, tach volts and everything goes like any other signal, then it hooks up to the brain and transforms whatever signal readable to the proper gauges. the cool thing with those is that it has a feature were it flashes the gauge u program to "warn" and "peak" . like i have the tach blink like a tach light and is noticeable. theres alot you can do with these gauges..
